Lebron and Malone, no brainer.

They aren't as clutch but I don't think they would play too many close games....

If Lebrom makes Hickson to seem a good player, imagine how well he would team with Karl.

And being physical...

I feel like Lebron and Malone are too physically imposing to pass up on. Between them, you'd have two of the strongest and most dominant players at their respective positions, and have two guys who can basically make a living on the free throw line and get the other team in major foul trouble. Take into account that they're less redudant than Bird/Dirk and that Malone has shown he can excel with a primary ball handler who has good vision, and I gotta take Malone/Lebron.

The idea of Lebron/Malone pick-n-roll just made me jizz a little

Lebron and Malone. Malone wouldn't be any better because he did have john stockton to pass him the ball. But Drik isn't even on the level of the other 3 players...
